Reyes, Cano, other WBC players hope to carry success into regular season

But many — like New York Yankees second baseman Robinson Cano and Toronto Blue Jays shortstop Jose Reyes — are hoping to guard against a letdown. There is, after all, a regular season to play in a few weeks.

Reyes, in fact, says he wants "to play the same way I played in the WBC because the season is right around the corner. I'm going to continue to work on my game and be ready to go."
